Question 814373: This is the question straight from the worksheet we got . . . A birding club holds an annual photography contest among its members. After a set time limit in a particular park, contestants receive 4 points for photos of songbirds and 20 points for photos of birds of prey. Last year's winner had a total of 200 points from 38 photos of individual birds. How many of each type of bird did the winner photograph.
